Black Widow

In the violet obscurity of dawning dusk You sink your pincers deep into my flesh Injecting a paralyzing serum Of bone crushing poison Causing agonizing memories to resurface Fringing the anatomy of my unstable psyche Rehashing aerial degrees of searing anguish Swamping me within a blackened ocean of bewilderment Puzzled here I stand as the taste of salt touches my lips Leaving bite marks carved upon the palms of these empty hands On your toxins my physique gradually weakens and chokes Journeying through the powerful charm of my eloquent diction Why won't you depart from my memory, Why can't you just let me be free? I no longer want to play the role of the prey entangled in your web of dinner Sever my way to freedom and I shall tread in the wake of sunrise For my destiny lies beyond this acrimonious hell hole Perseverance is the golden key to freedom of turbulence By Glenn McCrary © 2011 (All rights reserved)
